So I'm going to uni in England next year so I should get into grime. What are some essential albums? The more trap the better.

Ahhh nice where will you be studying? Grimes quite a single/mixtape orientated genre in some ways, of course there's a lot of essential albums. Wiley - Playtime is overGhetto - Freedom of speechP money - money over everyone Dizzee Rascal - Boy In The CornerJust to name a few! There's a few artists I like that i'm not including just because I havent actually listened to their albums, Newham Generals are one of my favourites! If you use reddit I'd reccomend checking the grime page out there as well as Grimepedia! Hope this kinda helps

Probably Manchester but maybe King's College ::crosses fingers::

And my first impression of this genre is that it's hilarious. It feels like they're trying so hard to sound 'thug' but it just doesn't come off that way at all. That's not a bad thing, mind.

Oh yeah, and I heard a line that was like "I'm about queen faces" and I thought it was great since all I've ever heard about is the color green and dead presidents.
